Lately I have been working with soft pastels. It is an interesting switch from the oil pastels I have been doing. These are all 9 x 12, done on location.

Lonely Kayak #3-Journey-landscape in flux-ice changes to water, acrylic on canvas (SOLD)
These paintings are really exciting for me and the response to them has been fantastic. I think working from life has helped to inform me on how to do the more "inner" paintings. This theme is very interesting to me. I love the shape of the kayak. It is a pod, very organic and yet not. I am painting a lonely journey. I don't know the outcome yet. There are many more paintings to come on this. I can't wait to get some more canvases and more cadmium yellow light paint!

My new beads! I have been exploring bead making and boy is it fun. I will be featuring these new necklaces at some of the shows this summer and fall.
Collaged pendant with lavarock, swarovsky austrian crystal,
yellow jade and skulls necklace. The skulls are fun and make
the jewelry seem primative and magical.
